[ Upstream commit 5fc6266af7b427243da24f3443a50cd4584aac06 ]
Commit e57f61858b7c ("net: bridge: mcast: fix stale nsrcs pointer in
igmp3/mld2 report handling") introduced a bug in the IPv6 header payload
length check which would potentially lead to rejecting a valid MLD2 Report:
The check needs to take into account the 2 bytes for the "Number of
Sources" field in the "Multicast Address Record" before reading it.
And not the size of a pointer to this field.

Linux kernel
============
There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.
In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``. The formatted documentation can also be read online at:
https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/
There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation.
Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
